Overview

About 18 George Street

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

18 George Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Markyate, St. Albans, St Albans (AL3 8JX). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2026) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include a loft.

Across 1999–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £336,000 is 43% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£376/sq ft) was about 54.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in June 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 18 George Street is modelled from its 58 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in AL3 8JX. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 18 George Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 18 George Street was lodged in April 2026 at band D and is valid until April 2036. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 18 George Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from AL3 8JX, not by walking route.
Council tax band
18 George Street is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
